QC / Abrasion & Adhesion Tests MIL-C Moderate Abrasion: 50 Strokes across the coated surface with a ¼” thickness pad of clean, dry cheesecloth. Minimum 1 pound of force must be applied. Severe Abrasion: 20 strokes across the surface with standard eraser conforming to MIL-E pound of force must be applied Adhesion Test: 0.5” wide SCOTCH tape is pressed firmly on to the coated surface and then quickly removed at a normal angle.

QC / Salt Fog Spray Test The salt fog method is applied to determine the effects of salt deposits on the physical & electrical aspects of the coatings. MIL-STD-810F (method 509.4) Salt Solution: 5+/-1% concentration. Confirmed by checking the specific gravity of the solution. Temperature: 35degC +/-2deg Duration: 48 hours of exposure + 48 hours of drying time 4 periods of 24hour periods (2 wet + 2 dry) The component should exhibit no signs of corrosion. Associated Environmental Systems - Model# MX9200

QC / Humidity Test Humidity test is performed to determine the resistance of the coatings and assemblies to degradation from exposure to high relative humidity. MIL-C : “Basic” resistance to humidity Temperature : 120deg F Humidity: % relative for 24~48hrs. The component shall not exhibit any signs of flaking, peeling, cracking, blistering, coating separation, moisture penetration or softening of cement if assembled. Blue M Electric - Model # AC-7502-TDA-4

QC / Temperature Cycle Test Temperature exposure testing is performed to determine the resiliency of the coatings and assemblies to changes in temperature. MIL-C Temperature: -80deg +/-2deg F & +160deg+/-2deg F Time: 2 hours at each temperature Rate of Temp Change: < 4 deg F per minute The component shall not exhibit any signs of flaking, peeling, cracking, blistering, coating separation, or softening of cement if assembled.
